deviantart anyone?

[Ray Falling]

I recall there was a tread on the old CE site asking if any of you are on deviantart. ( www.deviantart.com)

Its a community for artists from all over the world and there is lots to look at.

If you have a page show us the stuff n_n.

Mine is here: rayfalling.deviantart.com (http://www.rayfalling.deviantart.com)

My most recent work is rather crap, but my best viewed stuff can be found here: my best work here: (http://rayfalling.deviantart.com/gallery/?view=1&order=9&limit=24)

I'm a sky photographer and usually put in alot of emotion in my work, through poetic description that reflect my feelinsga or the moment.
I also do space art, but don't have too much of that online yet.

EDIT: I also have an account with original cat photos here: essence of cathood (http://essence-of-cathood.deviantart.com/)

Beautiful work there Ray, makes me wish I had a digital camera as some of those shots really are jaw droppingingly awesome. I may start a deviantart page sometime but I don't have one as yet. Those skylines, phew, where abouts are they taken by the way.

Thank you very much for your kind words n_n. I live in The Netherlands myself, and I take most of the pictures from my bedroom window which is on the 4th floor. And then some I took on vacation on one of the Dutch islands.

What kind of art would you be doing then? n_n let me know if you ever get a deviant account

Take care

Got me a little space at http://onionheadhat.deviantart.com

I did some poor photoshop work, after which I put all my old (co-wrote) comedy stories up, after which I've done 3 thought-based pieces, basically just thoughts going through my head that are written down. Check 'em ooooooout. As it were.

Sweet, I'm gonna make some time available for that soon.
I like that the most, writing down the thoughts in your head, when its all raw emotion and stuff n_n;; call me crazy but I'm a big fan of emotions.

I loved doing those, my best one (imo) was DayDream, just describing how I feel, non-specifically through these long periods of daydreaming silence.

Yeah i just read it, its awesome to say the least. I'll have to come back and read more of yer work. I really like it, its easy to understand even for a person such as myself n_n;;;

Keep up the good work!

[Surrealist]

Thanks man, that's cool of you to say that!

God DAMN you have a lot of pageviews, and I love the Rise and Fall Calender, as well as the "If God was a Deviant" one.

n_n you're welcome my friend.

And thank you n_n. I have quite alot of views yes, I'm quite pleased n_n, sometimes I'd like to get more recognition for my work though cause I feel that sky photography is very under-appreciated now since anime and stuff is most popular these days.

But all in all I have nothing to complain about. I met such awesome people there who really get inspired by my work...thats worth alot more than any amount of views n_n

Woah. What camera do you use?

[Ray Falling]

Woah. What camera do you use?

Canon Powershot G2 4.0 Megapixels.

I seen worse artists with better cameras n_n;;; Its the person behind the lens that makes the pictures great, not necessarily the quality of the camera n_n.

I don't mean to brag though. I dont consider myself that good, but I am pleased with the results I get. If I was to actually study photography I could do alot better. n_n;;; I just been taking the wrong path for the past 5 years eheheh.

n_n Its usually the feeling I put behind my work in the descriptions that add the power to the picture 0_0;;;

But overall I have an okay camera n_n thanks for taking time to check out my work n_n
Most of my watchers respond well to that. Bless em all n_n

[Eenuh]

It's great to see so many people being active on DA. Yay for creativeness. =D
Of course I also have my own page (http://eenuh.deviantart.com/), on which you will mostly find oekaki work from me. And maybe hopefully soon some paintings as I've started painting recently. =3

*will be sure to check out all of your pages over time*

Sweet! Thanks for the link n_n As I recall, I already checked it out before and you commented on my Sheena "fan art" correct? I'll go check your work again now, see whats new n_n

--Ray

[Eenuh]

Yep, I commented on your Sheena picture. It's pretty. =3
I also really like your photographs; skies are so awesome. =D

[Ray Falling]

n_n thank you. Though after reading the feedback I got on the Sheena picture, I should have tried something more..me, rather than using a reference picture..but aww well, it was such a long time ago...0_0 I stopped using ms paint for that and really improved my skillz now. But yeah, sky photography is still my fav thing to do n_n. My work is never done.

:glomp: I love your work too, you deserve more credit (i commented on that on yer page as well)

Can you explain to me what oekaki (spelling?) is anyway? I seen it before but I dont get what the definition of it is n_n

Thanks

--Ray

[Eenuh]

Well, oekaki is basically just an online drawing program. There are different versions of it, but I think you can sort of compare it to a small online Photoshop version or something. And it's addictive. =P

I'm not sure I'm allowed to post links to other sites here (other than DA pages of course), but you can go to http://www.oekakicentral.com to check it out. It's a big site with a lot of different rooms and themes and enough places to test it out. Plus, I'm a moderator there. X3

But yeah, you should try it out if you love to draw. Really fun and I love the community there. =3
Also, thanks for your comment on my DA page. Indeed, some more credit would be nice, but oh well, whatcha gonna do about it eh. ='D

Thanks, I'll have to check that out then n_n. So it can be basically any style of drawing but as long as it was done in that program its considered oekaki? Or is that manga/anime only? (as most seems to be that way anyway)

And yer welcome for the comment. I know its hard to get the recognition you deserve...I mean, I just hit 10.000 plus so I really shouldnt complain, but still i hav a fave average of 14 T_T and I have about 200 watchers so appearantly, even the best I can isnt that good...

But being on deviantart makes you an idiot-artist (well it makes me one anyway) at some point you only care about views and faves, 0_0 its nuts, I should do art for art sake again...but sometimes it feels like its just a populairity contest 0_0.

But I met awesome friends there that make it all okay again n_n;;;

--Ray

[Eenuh]

Right, oekaki is not a style, it's the name of the program. Most people tend to draw in anime style now just because it's the popular thing to do now. We have rooms on there that are specifically meant for non-anime drawings like realism. So yeah, style really doesn't matter; it's all allowed. =3

And yeah, sometimes DA does feel like a popularity contest, which kind of bothers me. But since I barely get any pageviews/comments anyway, it doesn't really affect me that much. I still draw because I like to draw and I will always keep on doing that. It would be nice to get some more views, but I won't die if I don't. =P

[MindFreak]

Yeah.. http://mindfreak0.deviantart.com .. that's me :)

[filly555]

hey, do you guys do anything above and beyond just posting your stuff to try and get criticism/comments on your work?

[Ray Falling]

hey, do you guys do anything above and beyond just posting your stuff to try and get criticism/comments on your work?

You can also sell yer work on there but that requires a small investment... Cant make a living off it but most people who sell good stuff are also better known... n_n

As an artist, exposure is very important, and this site is a good way to get that. And of course if yer serious about this you can also try selling stuff closer tohome etc and get exposition room I suppose n_n

[Eenuh]

Yeah, I looked into getting a prints account, but it's just not worth it. They charge you quite a bit for each print you sell, so you will barely make any kind of real money.

But because I need money, I've recently started taking commissions. I now do canvas paintings of people's pets and stuff. Actually just starting with taking commissions from my family (working on my first one now), but maybe afterwards I'll move on and take commissions from other people as well. =3

But yeah, DA is nice to get some comments and criticism; that is, if you get enough pageviews. Since I'm not really that active on there, I barely get any pageviews and the like. So if you want people to see your stuff, go around and comment on their stuff as well. =3

Exactly. I had a subscription at one point, but then you only get 10% and I think thats just wrong. But with yer own account you get 50% which still isnt alot.

But yeah you could just do commission I suppoes. Only thats usually for painters and people who draw really well. I just take pictures of the sky really, cant really charge alot for that (though my pictures are very unique)

So yeah, plus its very complicated to get a prints account for a guy like me so I dunno..I'll just wait and see n_n

[paperwario II]

don't konw which print you're talking about
*buys print*

am i folded in half or just happy to post stuff?

[Hellfire]

I have an account but its mainly to keep tabs on great artists. I made some wallpapers but 2 of them were banned due to some legal mumbo jumbo. Meh. I may post something eventually but I doubt it, since I dont have a scanner nor time to do anything.http://h3llfire.deviantart.com/

Okay I have to ask now. Who are you and what the hell is all this? There are now so many people with paper in their name and its starting to freak me out. I get the feeling that you're tracking down just about everything I type on this site and you don't ever seem to comment on topic, on any topic really. All you do is make really weird comments and to be honest I dont like that at all.

Please be serious. And stop stalking me. Please. You didnt have to post on this topic at all, yet you did, and it didnt make sense...it has to make sense...please stop it.

i guess my login name thing started it. it was meant to be like the original paper wario - while i can't take responsibility for the other 'papers' i'm sure they'll all get bored eventually. you're all copiers, you copiers.

Well thanks Ray you finally got me motivated to join, i've had tons of people telling me to do so prior but i just couldn't be agged, some of the photos you took are amazing and i'd like to ask you for permission to use them as resource material for the comic i'm working i'll be more then happy to give you full credit for inspiring me, and i have no intention of fully ripping them off, just draw them in anime form sort of. Anyway i'll leave you a comment once i get my page rolling and get to grips with it, it's been a long time coming this has. My page is...um let me find the link...www.sano87.deviantart.com

I'm very glad you decided to join. I first heard about it on the old CE forums but uopn seeing some peoples stuff i thought WHAT THE CRAP IS THIS SITE????

But then later I joined anyway and it was the best thing I ever did. n_n

Anyway, I shall check and see what you got so far soon. And thanks for taking interest in my work. I would appreciate if you send me a note on deviantart first on which pictures you want to use. I'll then look into it and see if I agree with yer choices or not. ( that may sound stupid, but some pictures have alot of personal value to me, plus i have to be carefull with the whole "art-stealing" deal ) Though as you say, you wont copy them or use the actual work so i guess thats cool.

I'll await yer reply. Thaks for letting us know n_n
